Synergism in the inhibition of Bacillus subtilis by combinations of lipophilic weak acids and fatty alcohols.
Combinations of two lipophilic weak acids and alcohols acted synergistically to inhibit growth of Bacillus subtilis. Alcohols contributed to both reversible and irreversible inhibitions by acids.
